摘要:
Novel peptidic or peptidomimetic agents or small molecules for modulating the biological effect of a chemokine. According to the present invention, the therapeutic agents preferably are endowed with the capacity to bind to certain chemokines in order to modulate the biological interaction between the target ligand, chemokine, and the respective target receptor, chemokine receptor. These peptides may be described as agonist ligands or antagonists. Next, preferably certain peptides share consensus sequences are described which characterize the families or categories of these modulator peptides.

摘要:
Novel polypeptides comprising a chemokine-binding peptide and an Fc fragment are disclosed. The polypeptides are capable of binding to certain chemokines so as to modulate their activity. These polypeptides can be used to modulate in vivo chemokine-dependent processes such as inflammation and autoimmunity, and to treat associated conditions.

摘要:
The present invention provides novel uses for CXCR4 antagonists, including specifically peptides of the T-140 family, in the treatment of skin burns and other injuries. The invention further provides methods for increasing epithelialization in a subject in need thereof, and for preventing or inhibiting fibrosis and excessive scar formation, using peptide inhibitors of the T-140 family as well as other CXCR4 antagonists.
